[QUOTE="flyboy999, post: 147498, member: 2330"] I agree. I think they are going to have to see how the market responds to the radical changes they are making with this vehicle before they start pumping them out like hot-cakes a-la-C7. Example: Right now Saskatoon Acura has two brand new 2017 and 2018 black NSXs sitting on their showroom floor at $192K when you can buy a new 2019 in the awesome Thermal Orange (just available for 2019) for $189K base price...... Southview Acura in Edmonton has a brand new 2017 NSX in red sitting there and they don't even want to list the price "please call" because they know that people are going to say exactly what I would say, "Why should I pay you $190K+ for a car that is going on two years old, when I can buy a 2019 for the same price? Essentially these dealers got screwed by the high MSRP for the NSX and no one has been biting. Can you imagine sitting on well over $300K worth of inventory for years at the Stoon dealership??? The owner must be kicking himself. This is exactly what GM dealerships will be afraid of.
